ABSTRACT

Project-based learning (PBL) is an innovative educational approach that has been widely integrated into vocational college education in China. However, some educators in vocational colleges in China fail to give full play to the characteristics and advantages of PBL. In response to this challenge, this paper introduces the "4A-5Steps" teaching model, aiming to better implement PBL in courses and thereby more effectively improve students' vocational skills.
